Simplify the ratio 70 pounds to 42 pounds to the lowest terms.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:
5/3

Explanation:
The given is:
70/42
We can start by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 7 as follows:
(70/7) / (42/7)
10 / 6
The result can be further simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2 as follows:
(10/2) / (6/2)
This will give us:
5/3
The reached result cannot be further simplified.
Therefore:
70 pounds to 42 pounds is equivalent t 5 pounds to 3 pounds in the simplest form.

Hope this helps :)

Você é um comandante de uma espaçonave. Sua missão é chegar até Alfa Centauro em cinco anos. A distância do Sol até Alfa Centaur

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The spaceship will get to Alpha Centaur in time

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question in English is</em></u>

You're the commander of a spaceship. Your mission is to reach Alpha Centaur in five years. The distance from the sun to Alpha Centaur is 2.5 x 10^13 miles. The distance from Earth to Sun is approximately 9.3 x 10^7

miles. Your spaceship can travel at the speed of light. You know that light can travel a distance of 5.88 x 10^12 miles in a year. Can you get to Alpha Centaur in time?

step 1

Find the time it takes for the spaceship to travel from Earth to the Sun

The distance from the Earth to Sun is equal to

$9.3*10^7\ miles$

The spaceship can travel at the speed of light

The light can travel a distance of $5.88*10^{12}\ miles$ in a year

using a proportion

$\frac{5.88*10^{12}\ miles}{1\ year}=\frac{9.3*10^7\ miles}{x}\\\\x=(9.3*10^7)/5.88*10^{12}\\\\x=1.58*10^{-5} \ years$

This time is very small in years

Convert to minutes

$1.58*10^{-5} \ years=1.58*10^{-5} (365)(24)(60)=8.3\ min$

step 2

Find the time it takes for the spaceship to travel from the Sun to Alpha Centaur

The distance from the the Sun to Alpha Centaur is equal to

$2.5*10^{13}\ miles$

The spaceship can travel at the speed of light

The light can travel a distance of $5.88*10^{12}\ miles$ in a year

using a proportion

$\frac{5.88*10^{12}\ miles}{1\ year}=\frac{2.5*10^{13}\ miles}{x}\\\\x=(2.5*10^{13})/5.88*10^{12}\\\\x=4.25\ years$

$4.25\ years< 5\ years$

therefore

The spaceship will get to Alpha Centaur in time

Roberto finished 2/3 of the race in 4 hours. How long is the entire race?

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

because it took 4 hours to do 2/3 meaning that in one hour it took 2 hours so due to 3/3 being done at 2 hours a piece puts it at 6 hours

Two thirds a number plus 4 is 7

Sergio039 [100]

(2/3)x+4= 7

Subtract 4 from both sides
(2/3)x= 3

Divide both sides by 2/3. To divide by a fraction, multiply the first number by the reciprocal of the second.
3*3/2= 9/2

Final answer: 9/2 or 4.5
